ATEN Technology Targets SOHO and SMB Markets With New Audio-Enabled DVI
Video Switches
New 2- and 4-Port Video Switches Ideal for Presentations and Home
Entertainment Systems
IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 24 — ATEN Technology, Inc., an innovator of
high-quality KVM (keyboard/video/mouse) and remote connectivity solutions
to manage servers and other network devices, today announced two
DVI-compliant video switches designed specifically for the SOHO and SMB
environment. The new VS-261/461 DVI Video Switch solutions, available in
two- and four-port devices, combine DVI video functionality with audio
support for PC and Mac systems. These new units enable users to switch
among two and four DVI or analog media sources (PC, Mac, DVD player, etc.),
respectively, for output on a single display (LCD monitor, plasma or
projector) and set of speakers. Both models boast high resolution levels of
1600×1200 and include front panel switches and an infrared remote control
for video source selection.
According to the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), DVI is an
uncompressed, digital video interface that was originally developed for the
PC industry as a low-cost, high-bandwidth digital connection between PCs
and digital monitors (such as LCDs). DVI is now the most widely used
digital display interface in the PC industry and is available on most LCD
monitors, as well as many PC display projectors and plasma panels.
“DVI is the mainstream digital video specification for the personal
computer market and our new DVI-compliant video switches are the perfect
solution for managing video content from a broad range of media sources,”
said Sampson Yang, CEO, ATEN Technology, Inc. “With audio and remote
control support, the VS-261/461 units are ideal for business presentations
and home entertainment systems.”
Other Highlights of the VS-261/461
* Full compliance with DVI specifications
* Plug-n-Play Installation
* Stackable design
* LED display for easy status monitoring
Pricing & Availability
Available today, the new VS-261 and VS-461 are priced affordably at $199.95
and 299.95, respectively.
